Latest news and rumours:

• Tom Barrass officially requests trade to Hawthorn
  • Duffield: Eagles want two first round picks - "It may have to be in this year’s draft rather than a future pick."
  • Morris: Josh Battle is set to join Barrass at Hawthorn in 2025 - Ralph: Unclear if Hawks will pay enough for Band 1

• Kysaiah Pickett interested in a trade
  • "Club and management are confident they can work through his concerns"
  • Daniels: Pickett’s preference is Fremantle. Fremantle are keen, but Bolton the priority. Getting both “not impossible”. West Coast “an option if things get complicated.”

• Jai Culley, Coen Livingstone, Loch Rawlinson in line for one-year deals (The West)
  
  
• Liam Baker and Shai Bolton

Looks like a priority pick is back on the menu boys

Wouldn't have thought so.
Seem to be playing all of the good teams at the moment.

 

[Wooshaaaa]

Baker will decide where he goes and if he picks us then beggars can't be choosers. Busslinger, Baker and Graham in for 2 second rounders would be a great result, top 5 even.

Graham can't keep fit on the park. Another soft tissue this weekend. Damaged goods. Pointless for us at the minute.

We literally have the same player in sheed as Graham. Both too slow for the modern game.

Sure Graham tackles more and sheed is a much better kick but they both have the same major flaws . Slow , injury prone and not damaging

Cummin and perryman at GWS are both UFA and much better players

Trading in Cummin or Perryman , Baker, busslinger and kaleb Smith whilst keeping our first and future 1st for blue chip mids or Gun KPPs would be what we aim for .

Also getting some late picks for malakai champion

And holy shit do we need blue chip mids.

next 4 games tuggs.... we have 3 home

hopefully that will help

 

[TerryFilk]

I like Cody Anderson a lot for us, one of the best contested mids in this upcoming draft but isn’t one dimensional, hits the scoreboard and is just a real cult figure lol.

Definitely an option for us if we split our top 2-4 pick.

 

[Boots73]

Surprised there hasn’t been more talk of Moyle for us.

Witts still going strong and Ethan Reid will be groomed to take over.
He’s a big lad

 

[eaglevision]

Don’t think Yeo is going anywhere fellas:

‘Littlest Yeo’: Eagles star reveals baby joy

West Coast star Elliot Yeo has announced he is expecting his first child with fiancée Tess.

[Boohemian]

That baby is going to lay waste to that Goodbody.

Would also explain Yeo’s new groin injury.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Us Eagles fans have lived a charmed existence over the last 20 years when it came to our ruck stocks. From Cox to Naitanui...and now we've been playing with a zero impact part time ruckman for two straight years now...can we PLEASE go grab a ruckman until Barnett and Reid are old enough to do something?...Please?!

We need deeper stocks than just Flynn.

Hmmm...this photo shoot has a slightly different vibe to the Nathan Wilson one from a few years back

And holy s**t do we need blue chip mids.

We should trade Chesser. Lots of people saying he should or could be desisted. Agree, if any club wo u ld have him

 

[Jez1974]

What happens when Flynn is back with the 2nd ruck .

Jack Williams seems a much better forward than bailey.

Waterman has cemented his spot and maric is a beautiful kick and superior around the ground

Maric at chf or wing, higher up ground

 

[TerryFilk]

I’m reluctant to trade Chesser until we see him on ball or under a new coach, I still think there’s a lot to work with there, he’s just not a winger.

Why did he not play in the guts today. We had no one else. He is not a tackle or high pressure player perhaps

 

[Jez1974]

Is that what he thinks of Chesser too!!

 

[squashface]

JFC champ, give it a rest. The entire world and the next one know what you think of Chesser now (all against their will), you don't need to keep posting about it over and over and over again.

He isn't an onballer either

See rap!

Forums are for voicing opinions
If he is that good we would get something decent for him

Defo don't want graham

Under a new coach be good

 

[Sammy J]

Need to draft another high quality mid, and bring a couple veteran ones. If we can land Baker, that’s a start. We need more though.

Agreed. Also need to give hall a run. He has good footy iq just needs games.
Hewett will be good when fit
